PBP Commentary |
Coming up we have a super heavyweight kickboxing rules bout between Draughn Diego (ranked 1660 p4p, 46 weight class) and Neil Diaz (ranked 2521 p4p, 73 weight class). I'm sure you'll be fascinated to know that I was talking to some pointless Z list celebrity before the fight and he thought that Neil Diaz was going to win. Let's see if he was right.
